People who go commando (don't wear underwear), how do you make it work? (lemmy.zip)

I've always been curious, because I'm not fond of underwear, but I don't know how people make it work. Wouldn't you have to wash the trousers every single day? How else would you keep them fresh? Do you use special deodorant for the area or panty liners on the trousers?

Tell your story.

Duuuuude, or dudette. Let me tell you a story.

One about people with certain waist ratios, and heavy manual labour, and what all that motion can do to underwear.

I recently moved houses, and for the first time ever (after decades of experience), chose to forgo undies and go commando in sweatpants for this recent ordeal.

Boy howdy. Let me tell you all the ways it was awesome. Sweat induced induction to asscrack, is but one of them. But likely the most important, the Knock-on ride-up effect. Also gone.

Also to actually elaborate on OPs question because i got distracted replying to replies.

Wear the same boxers for a few days. How do they smell? Wear the same jeans for a few days. Compare.

As a dude, I can tell you, for me they do not. But that going commando reduces my lifespan for clothes without washing.

Also, bidet user, ftr Edit - and aaaalso, i was married, and lmty, there is definitely a gender gap here.
